Most of the passengers on that original flight from Seattle to Atlanta landed at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport after midnight. Channel 2 Action News talked to one of the passengers who tried to save this boy's life.

Dan Goslin, a registered nurse, was sitting about 15 rows in front of the teenager when the crew called for anyone with medical training.

Goslin says he and two other passengers, a doctor and a nurse midwife, did all they could.

"He was having trouble breathing. We tried oxygen. That didn't work. We tried to move him out of the chair and get him to another position. That didn't work and everything we tried just really didn't work," Goslin said.

Once on the ground firefighters took over care, but the teen died. His name has not been released.

Passengers said the boy's father was in Atlanta and they were in the process of moving the family to the metro area.
